Scottie Scheffler shows how to 'putt' God first

Scottie Scheffler

Summer 2024 has featured action from many different sports. One jewel in Britain’s sporting crown comes in the shape of The Open - the final major in the golfing calendar.

This year’s 152nd Open Championship took place at Royal Troon, on Scotland’s west coast, and golf’s biggest names competed once again to become the ‘Champion Golfer of the Year,’ and win the famous Claret Jug trophy.

One man who sought glory was world number one Scottie Scheffler, who won his second Masters title at Augusta in April. He has had a stellar year so far, and has set several records, although could only tie for seventh place in Troon. As you may remember from our May issue, Scheffler is particularly interesting because of his Christian faith - and indeed he accredits his biggest career wins to God.
